Like everyone else, I love that there's a Duty Free in Heaven.
Is this the first time we learn Molly's surname? That's always vaguely bugged me, since it reminds me of Moll Flanders, who is pretty much the opposite of how anyone halfway logical sees Molly.

Molly's last name is Sanders. The McSweeney in the title refers to McSweeney's, the elitist lit mag they're talking about in the strip.

Man, don't you hate it when you're at a lame party and a friend of yours clicks with a stranger like this? It's like watching him riding a rollercoaster and eating an ice cream sundae while you're sitting in the penalty box at a hockey game while inner city fans spit at the back of your head.

You were exactly sitting in the box getting spat on while your friend was smoothing, riding a roller coaster and getting his Cone on? And you said this was a lame party?
Damn, I at least hope you were in for a high sticking double minor on your friend.

What's interesting here is that with any other comic this would just be the author clumsily writing a pretentious review of something he dislikes into the dialogue of his characters. In Achewood, it's two characters discovering just how perfect they are for each other.

Because they already know all this mundane crap about each other. If they were still having introductory conversations about hipster lit and were due to get married soon, I'd be worried.

I'm going to be all kinds of obvious, but has anyone ever mentioned the reason the boys get out of Heaven/Hell so often is that they all have 9 lives, being cats.
Todd is an exception because Squirrels are entirely interchangeable. The same 10,000 squirrels have been reincarnating since the begginning of time and getting absolutely nowhere .

i like mcsweeney's, but not as much as i like achewood... this strip makes me feel weird...
Same here, but nothing to feel weird about. Satire doesn't seek our loyalty.
Achewood makes me feel weird in that "I just saw nude breasts for the first time" kind of way. Strange and foreign, but ultimately really awesome.
oh man. i remember that.
that was awesome.
Indeed.
chubbied
Who can forget?
What's that actually like?
*sobs*
Oh God, I'm so lonely.
Well
It's kind of like
basketball
I am there
And the breasts are there
And I touch them
And I am the winner
Why is this not chubbied to hell?
I lolled
whoever lamed this is the saddest person who has ever lived, and they are aggressively dedicated to being sad.
And then the saddest little man lames the man who tries to highlight his sadness. Truly, he is the saddest little man.
Did you write "Satire doesn't seek our loyalty" yourself? If so - a teenage boy in another country has quoted you out loud to friends. Because it's brilliant and true.
I am also a fan of McSweeney's
I feel just like a Bertolucci film!
And that's what Onstad wants you to feel.
